Phew. Been crazy busy: as well as juggling a full-time job as stockroom gimp/returns controller at HMV, I've dived head first into learning the fantastic Drupal which is the engine the site you're viewing now is based on. I must say, I'm well impressed.

I'm also still working on these emailable brochures for free2mail. Having lots of fun with Flash and XML/XSLT: its been fun learning it all. XSLT is pretty darn powerful really: turning an XML data file into a XHTML file serving a Flash SWF with no actual coding, anyone? Anyway, looking forward to improving the brochure stuff as the core stuff is at a good point now to build on properly, adding features such as XML-defined sound (ambient loops and random hits to create a varying background sound), new generic templates, auto-generated HTML versions and tracking the brochures.

some links for youse
